Battalionlord Hadinar is described as a "stocky, bejowled fellow."[1] He is ranked below Highmarshall Azure, but close enough to be one of her primary officers. Hadinar, being trusted by Azure, knew many of her secrets before others, including how the soulcaster in Kholinar wasn't detected by the screamers. He was also trusted with learning new secrets, such as Kaladin's mission and Knight Radiant abilities.[1] How he gained Azure's trust is unknown.
